OBJECTIVES:
Introduce and explain fundamental economic concepts such as supply and demand, market
equilibrium, and economic cycles.

Use interactive and engaging gameplay to make learning economics enjoyable and

situations, thereby enhancing critical thinking skills.
Offer a narrative-driven experience that helps players relate abstract economic concepts to

SUGGESTED GROUP SIZE: Single-player format, allowing personalized learning experiences

tailored to the individual’s pace and understanding. Potential for use in a classroom setting
where each student plays individually, followed by group discussions on the concepts learned.

RESOURCES / MATERIAL:
The game requires a computer running Windows 10 or higher.
2 GB of available storage space for the game installation.
A monitor or display that supports the game’s resolution, along with a keyboard and mouse
for navigation.

The game can be downloaded from Steam, so an internet connection is necessary for the
initial download and updates. It is also available in a zip file on https://www.ceteris-
paribus.eu/simulation-game

IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS OF THE ACTIVITY USING THIS TOOL:
The player begins the game by assuming the role of the character Kai, who navigates
through different levels that represent various economic environments.
Each level presents a new economic concept, such as inflation, market dynamics, or

economic crises, which players must understand and apply to progress.
The gameplay involves point-and-click mechanics where players gather information, solve
puzzles, and complete mini-games that reinforce the economic lessons being taught.

As players advance, they encounter more complex scenarios that require deeper
understanding and application of economic principles.
The game is designed to be both educational and entertaining, ensuring that players remain
engaged while learning.
